He's egalitarian, in that he doesn't exempt his own family from his asshattery.

Quote:In 2000, during a family dispute about the details of his father’s will, Trump, who was by then fabulously wealthy in his own right, cut off benefits from the family health plan that were paying for the medical care of his nephew’s seriously ill young son.

That's just one example. He has treated all three wives horribly, but at least they got into it of their own free will. First wife Ivana:

Quote:They were married just before Easter of 1977, a few months after Donald presented her the Cohn prenup that required her to return all gifts given to her by Donald, which nearly killed the deal. Eventually, the two men agreed to let Ivana keep the jewels if this love bond proved less than eternal, and the wedding proceeded. Later Donald would say, in front of his wife, “I would never buy Ivana any decent jewels or pictures. Why give her negotiable assets?”

After those issues failed to bring down Trump, the new thing is to question Trump's sanity. Top story on all the major networks. Huffington post top article is a picture of Trump with the caption "American Psycho." Don Lemon on CNN "There was no sanity there."

The left has gone completely off the deep end. The right wing hate of Obama pales in comparison to the Trump hate.

At some point the left has to ask themselves how low is too low? When republican candidates are pulling in money 3 to 1 over their opponents and the RNC is smashing fundraising records month after month while the DNC is on the verge of bankruptcy, it becomes apparent you need a new tactic.

Russia, racist and insane cannot be the democrat party platform. It's failing miserably.

This is a storm of Trump's own making. Trump tears people down left and right, and you expect them to respect him?

This is why I find LDH to be putting up a front with the bullshit tough guy talk about how terrible the DNC is doing; he's ignoring the glaring evidence his own party is in turmoil.

At BEST the RNC is split on support to Trump, with more and more starting to speak out on Trump, and more and more reports of inner turmoil and fighting. It's pretty clear the RNC is in a terrible spot; internally most of them hate Trump and want him to STFU, but because their strongest base is mouth breathers like LDH, they can't risk pissing them off too much. Look at all the Rs that speak out against Trump and the response from the Trump tards.

And I don't expect anything less, LDH is pretty much playing dress up and acting like his god. Same brash hilariously obtuse arrogance, same simplistic repeating of talking points and phrases, and the same analytical abilities of a fence post. I mean go ahead, repeat "FAKE NEWS" like we all know you're going to say, and tell us again about how much moneys the Rs have; we all know you've got nothing else.
